AIRE by ANFORH: Clarity, Fresh Air and Quiet Confidence

There’s a certain type of fragrance that doesn’t shout for attention, yet instantly changes how you feel the moment it touches skin. AIRE by ANFORH is exactly that kind of scent. Clean, textured and incredibly modern, it feels like stepping outside early in the morning when the air is crisp, cool and full of possibility. Fresh citrus, ozonic clarity and mineral vetiver combine to create something refined, calming and quietly confident.

This is a fragrance about balance. It’s fresh without being fleeting, airy without feeling thin, and grounded without ever becoming heavy. From the first spray, AIRE feels intentional and beautifully composed.

The Scent

Top Notes: Green Mandarin Rind, Calabrian Bergamot, Eucalyptol
The opening is bright and invigorating. Green mandarin rind and cold-pressed Calabrian bergamot bring a sharp, natural citrus freshness that feels incredibly clean. The addition of eucalyptol adds a cool, almost breezy quality, giving that unmistakable ozonic sensation of fresh air filling your lungs.

Heart Notes: Grapefruit, Artemisia, Ozonic Accord
As the citrus settles, the fragrance develops real depth. Grapefruit keeps things crisp, while artemisia introduces a slightly bitter, herbal edge that adds character and sophistication. The ozonic accord continues to flow through the heart, maintaining that airy, open feeling without losing structure.

Base Notes: Haitian Vetiver, Cashmeran, Ambrox, Cypriol
The dry-down is where AIRE truly shines. Haitian vetiver, grown in sand, brings a mineral, dry earthiness that grounds the fragrance beautifully. Cashmeran adds a soft, musky texture, while ambrox and cypriol introduce warmth and subtle depth without overpowering the freshness. The result is smooth, modern and incredibly wearable.

Why AIRE Stands Out

AIRE feels thoughtful and composed from start to finish. It doesn’t rely on sweetness or heaviness to make an impression. Instead, it creates impact through texture, clarity and restraint. There’s a confidence to it that feels natural rather than forced, making it incredibly easy to wear yet far from boring.

What I particularly love is how it evolves. The citrus opening is bright and uplifting, but it never disappears into nothing. Instead, it gently transitions into something deeper, mineral and quietly sensual.

A Personal Comparison

If you know my taste in fragrance, you’ll know that Gingembre by Mizensir is one of my all-time favourites, especially in spring and summer. AIRE gives me a similar feeling. Both open with that beautifully fresh citrus lift, and both have real depth beneath the brightness. Where Gingembre leans into icy spice and vibrancy, AIRE leans into air, minerals and modern woods. They sit in the same space emotionally: refreshing, energising and endlessly wearable.

When to Wear It

AIRE is a perfect daytime fragrance, especially for spring and summer, but it works all year round thanks to its dry, mineral base. It’s ideal for work, travel, weekends or any moment when you want to feel clear headed and composed. This is also a brilliant signature scent if you prefer fragrances that feel clean, modern and understated.

ONE TO WATCH FOR 2026

ANFORH feels like a brand with a clear vision, and AIRE sets a strong foundation for what’s to come. Alongside it, the collection is completed by Kist, a warmer, more intimate scent, and Sorn, which leans darker and more contemplative. Together, they show impressive range, but AIRE feels like the heartbeat of the line.
